# BTstack Port for Windows Systems with Bluetooth Controller connected via Serial Port
|
|
|
|
The Windows-H4 port uses the native run loop and allows to use Bluetooth Controllers connected via Serial Port.
|
|
|
|
Make sure to manually reset the Bluetooth Controller before starting any of the examples.
|
|
|
|
## Toolchain
|
|
|
|
The port requires a Unix-like toolchain. We successfully used [mingw-w64](https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php) to compile and run the examples. mingw64-w64 is based on [MinGW](mingw.org), which '...provides a complete Open Source programming tool set which is suitable for the development of native MS-Windows applications, and which do not depend on any 3rd-party C-Runtime DLLs.'
|
|
|
|
We've used the Msys2 package available from the [downloads page](https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php/download) on Windows 10, 64-bit and use the MSYS2 MinGW 32-bit start menu item to compile 32-bit binaries that run on both 32/64-bit systems.
|
|
|
|
In the MSYS2 shell, you can install git, python, and, winpty with pacman:
|
|
|
|
$ pacman -S git
|
|
$ pacman -S python
|
|
$ pacman -S winpty
|
|
|
|
## Compilation
|
|
|
|
With mingw64-w64 installed, just go to the port/windows-winusb directory and run make
|
|
|
|
$ cd btstack/port/windows-winusb
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
## Console Output
|
|
|
|
When running the examples in the MSYS2 shell, the console input (via btstack_stdin_support) doesn't work. It works in the older MSYS and also the regular CMD.exe environment. Another option is to install WinPTY and then start the example via WinPTY like this:
|
|
|
|
$ winpty ./spp_and_le_counter.exe
|
